Thread: bug on debian... what's wrong with me ?
Hi, I can't login to the database with RC2 and Debian. I have a wxWidgets assert. Did I miss something or should I try the --disable-beer ? Here is the end of my pgadmin.log: 2004-11-18 22:49:33 INFO : Draw size of 'M': w=11, h=17, descent 4, external lead 0. 2004-11-18 22:49:33 INFO : Draw size of 'g': w=8, h=17, descent 4, external lead 0. 2004-11-18 22:49:33 INFO : Draw size of 'Mg': w=19, h=17, descent 4, external lead 0. 2004-11-18 22:49:33 INFO : Creating a ctlSQLBox 2004-11-18 22:49:33 INFO : Creating a pgCollection object 2004-11-18 22:49:33 INFO : Reloading servers... 2004-11-18 22:49:34 INFO : Creating a pgServer object 2004-11-18 22:49:34 INFO : Creating a pgServer object 2004-11-18 22:49:34 INFO : Creating a pgServer object 2004-11-18 22:49:34 INFO : Creating a pgServer object 2004-11-18 22:49:34 INFO : Destroying a splash screen 2004-11-18 22:49:37 STATUS : Interrogation en cours de la configuration du serveur.... 2004-11-18 22:49:37 INFO : Displaying properties for Server localhost:5432 2004-11-18 22:49:37 INFO : Displaying properties for server localhost:5432 2004-11-18 22:49:37 STATUS : Interrogation en cours de la configuration du serveur....

I get the same error if I use Turkish locale! I'd report it today but
totally forgot it!
I think there is a problem in wxWidgets, we should report this bug to
them.

How do you explain that it worked smoothly with pgA3 RC1 and not with RC2 ? Maybe it's a problem due to modifications in pgA3, maybe I should rebuild the entire wx based on the current libs on my host(they all were upgraded), myabe this is due to some changes elsewhere which break "dialogues" between pgA3 code and wxWid...

Provide a stack backtrace, so I can see where the assert comes from. Maybe you have to switch from beer to cocktails. Regards, Andreas
Hi Andreas,
finally it's not as dramatic as I thought... read further please:

So, take this as an invitation to my cocktail party! ;)
In fact, I have such an assert when PostgreSQL is stopped!!! ;)
/etc/init.d/postgresql stop
launch pgadmin, try to connect and you fall in the assert...
Here is a backtrace:

nope :( it does not solve the problem. But I think you were on the good
way... Here is the error message reported by psql:
$ psql -d template1 -h localhost
psql: could not connect to server: ��ٷ
Is the server running on host "localhost" and accepting
TCP/IP connections on port 5432?
$ psql -d template1 -h localhost 2>&1 | cat -vet
psql: could not connect to server: M-^HM-^]M-YM-7$
^IIs the server running on host "localhost" and accepting$
^ITCP/IP connections on port 5432?$
I found the right part of the message really strange and decided to take
a look to debian bugs... It seems you were right :) Take a look at bug
#277757 [1].
Apparently it's fixed upstream now and I bet there will be an update.
BTW, it may be good if we could prevent this libpq bug from altering
pgA3 runability.
So, here we go, I'm gonna reupload pga3 rc2 debian packages and precise
there are some side effects in certain conditions due to libpq bugs.

Raphaël

IMHO making pga3 dependent on the yet-to-come corrected libpq version should be enough. I don't have a good idea how to catch this. Regards, Andreas
Andreas Pflug wrote: > > > IMHO making pga3 dependent on the yet-to-come corrected libpq version > should be enough. I don't have a good idea how to catch this. mmh I can't do that in packaging stuff as it would make them uninstalable unless I badly package PG8 myself (and I won't!)... ;) However, we may consider pg8 as a highly recommended build dep in the "howto build pga3" documentation. Can you add a "bug line" to the "known issue" or "Known issues, but might stay unfixed" something like: <li>[Connection window] you might get a wxAssert when trying to connect to a non running PostgreSQL server; this is a libpq problem which is solved in PostgreSQL 8.0beta3.

Assert should arise only if compiled in debug mode, so I think we can omit that. OTOH, if the Assert *does* popup, the Debian package version seems to be compiled for debugging, ist this intentional?
